GETTING His SHARE.-Since Sambo has had his civil rights there ha? been hardly an execution without a colored gentleman at tho uncomfortable end of tho rope. A Negro Mnyor for \Vm?lilnpttm~.\rl? toermoy Ainony (Ue DtiikUs. The following despatob.es from the Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, gives some further indica tiona of tho drift of tbe black current ut tho national capital : Tho next mo'vo of the colored Repub? licans of this city is to be an effort to elect oue pf their race, John F. Cook, aa Mayor of Washington. Cook has just beon elected Registrar, one of the most importaut offices iti the eily.' His co? lored brethren say they must boro him as their next Mayor, at every hnzard. They contend that they do all the heavy voting nod elect all the Republican can? didates, and therefore are eutitled to control something better than the mere Registrarship and a few Aldormon and Councilmen. Cook, though popular with moat of the old colored settlers, looks down upon the poor blacks, and particularly the Virginia contrabands, whom ho thinks unfit for decent colored socioty. It is said that during Lincolu's time, Cook advised Old Abe not to allow the contrabands to come to Washington, on the ground thut it would ruin busi? ness. How this will go down with his colored citizens remains to bo seen. Major Richards, tho Superintendent of Police, was a pretty prominent candidate for tho Mayoralty uutil tho riot on Mon? day last. It is believed that his prompt action to suppress that littlo disorder baa destroyed his last, chalice of success, aud that Cook will certainly get the nomination and bo elected, lt is re? marked here that while the blacks are clamoring for admission to the theatres on the white level, they do not practice tho same equality in their dealings with each other. Thus the most fashionable barbers here aro colored men, who will on no account descend to shave u darkey. Their reason is, perhaps, not that they object on their own account, but because it would ruin their whito custom. Stewart, who was elected Alderman of tho First Ward on Monday, is a colored man and a barber, and was objected to by somo of his raco becanso ho would not let negroes be shuved and ont in his artistic establishment. "Do you think I'm going to vote for a colored man because he ia a Republican, when he thinks us not respectable enough to be shaved in his atore?" was the sharp answer of some of the colored voters whose ballots was asked for Stewart. It is the same thing in the resturnnts. Many of them are kept by colored men and have the moat respectable whito pa? tronage. Of course they decline to allow Sambo to squat at the name tables with their white customers. Thus, it will be seen, that the theatre question is not the only one that will create trouble, and that that trouble is likely to recoil ou the black himself. THE WASHINGTON NEGROES DETERMINED TO CLAIM SKATS IN THE THEATRES. It waa telegraphed by certain corres? pondents that no danger would grow out of the law recently passed by the Muni? cipal Council of this city, compelling the admission of colored peopple to all places of amusement on an equality with whites. The reason assigned was that the colored people had determined not to thrust themselves offensive by upon tho whites. Tho following letter, written to a Washington paper by John F. Cook, a colored man, just elected Registrar of this city, shows that at least somo color? ed people intend to avail themselves fully of the rights guaranteed them uuder this new arrangement: "2b the Editor of the Chronicle. "I see by an item in your local co? lumns that Messrs. John F. Cook and Carter A. Stewart called on the managers of the National Theatre and assured them that the colored poople had no in? tention of attempting to gain admittance to any part of said theatre except the galleries. This statement, ns far ns I am concerned-and I might say for Mr. Stewart-ia wholly false. I never was in the theatre in my life, for tho reason of its making distinction on account of color; and, having labored long and earnestly to break down such degrading barriers, I am the last man to shame a record of which I nm proud, and shall avail myself often of the privilege that I, with others, have labored to been re for tho colored people of our city. I have no compromise or truco to make on this matter with any manager or anybody elso. Respectfully, ?fee, "JOHN F. COOK." Tho portrait painters of Paris now represent the ladies whose likenesses they have to paint in tho attitudes and cos? tume of certain mythological characters painted l>y the famous masters. It is strange, but truo, that "Leda" portraits aro most in demand among tho fashiona? ble ladies of the Frouch capital. As a compromise with modesty, tho lathes poso behind a screen, tho artist making Iiis sketch from tho reflection in a mir? ror. COOLIE LABOR.-A despatch from St. Joseph, Mo., sa yu: "Fred. K. Foreman passed through here on tho way to commence a lecturing tour through the Southern Slates with u view to an extensivo introduction of coo? lie serfdom throughout tho South." "Cuft', can you tell mo tho difference between an accidont and a misfortune?" "I gives it up, Pomp; can you?" "Yes; if a certain carpet-bag Judge should fall into tho river, that would bo an accident; if somebody would pull bini out, it would be a misfortune." Two "ladies" wore having some words together on tho road-side, when tho daughter of ono of them popped her head ont of the door and cried: "He quick, mother, and call her a thief be? fore she calls you ono." A young M.1). having asked permission of n girl to kiss her, sho replied, "No, thank you; 1 never liko a doctor's bill stuck in my face." A colored gentleman of Connecticut recently celebrated with great enthusi? asm thc passage of tho "Fifteenth Com? mandment." Proceedings of Council. COUNCIL CHAMBEB, COLUMBIA, Jnne ?5, 1869.

The Committee on Guard House ni Police reported tho monthly report tho Chief of Polico for May as bei correct. Concurred in. The following report was presented a special committee: The committee to whom was referr the account of John Burdell, for servil rendered us Child of Police and hire servants, beg leave to report that I salary for tho year ending 19th Api 1804, was $1,200 per annum, at win dato he was elected at a salary of $2.t per year, and that he remained in oil until 17th February, I8ti5. having fr? that date ceased to perform the dot to which he was elected. Your como tee also report that tho hire of his s vants ceased at sumo lime, neither hi self or servants having rendered n services after the foregoing date. The compensation agreed upon at I time of his election was well linderst? lo be tho current funds of the day, v Confederate money; tho Major of 1 city, City Clerk, Police and employ having received their pay in these fun and the tuxes being levied in this c rency exclusively. Burdell seems have been the only officer who refll: to receive this money, (which your cc mittee believe was tendered to hi although it must havo been well um stood when he became a candidate, ? : was elected flint, bis pay was to be i current funds of the period, in which i public officers of the city and Stale w then paid. Your committee believe compensation ample, as it carried wit exemption from military service. Mi ' parties would have been willing to h i paid the city for tho office for tho j: 1 pose of si curi' ?: tho military exempli ! Your committee can only lix the wo of the : vs, Nelson, Sam and .lim tho rate . ; aid by tho city to other | tics nt thc samo timo, and paid in st currency. . From reports in tho City Clerk's office, it appears that Dr. John Doutwright waa paid, on July 1, 1864. for eight mouths services of boy ut $25 per month, and that Jamen Jonea was paid, on October 5, 1864. $52 for one. month's hire of boy. From this, it ap? pears that 825 per month was rate of wages for 1863, and 850 per month for 1864, all.payable iu Confederate cur? rency. Your committee have consulted the City Attorney, who ndvises that Bm dell cannot recover his bill aa rendered, and that his bill will have to be sealed down to tho equivalent of corporate mouey, contracted to bo paid according to tho gold valuation, or the scale of vo? iries fixed by tho late Legislature. If, by the former plan, tho amount duo bim for . services and hire would amount to 8341 37, and if, by the latter. 8379.73 io tJoited States currency, aa for culculutions auuexed. As Burdell ac? knowledges a discount for three mules 8370, your committee report th ut the city of Columbia is iudebtod to bim 89.23; and, therefore, recommend that tlie same be paid on bis signing a re? ceipt, relieving tho city from nil claims of every nature whatever.

HOW HOSTBTTBR'R B1TTBR9 CUIIE DYSPEPSIA-TUE WHOLE STORY IN A NUT-8HELL.-Tho offico of tho stomach is to convert the food into a creani-liko semi fluid, called chyme. This is effected partly by tho action of a solvent, called tho gastric juice, which exudes from the coating of tho stomach, and partly by a mechanical movement of that organ, which churns, as it were, tho dissolving alim?nt. Tho chyme pasaos from the stomach into tho duodennm, or entrance to the bowels, whore it is subjected to tho action of tho hilo, and tho nutritious portion of it converted into a finid called chyle, which eventually becomes blood. Now, it is evidont that if the groat solvent, tho gastric juice, is not producod in sufficient quantity, or if tho mechanical action of tho sto? mach ia not sufiiciontly brisk, tho first prooess of digestion will bo but imperfectly performed. It ii also clear that if tho liver, which plays such an important part in changing tho non? 'rlaning portion of the chymo into tho material of tho blood, is congealed, or in any unnatural condition, the second procese will not be tho? roughly accomplished. Tho result of tho two failures is dyspepsia, complicated with bilious? ness. Tho mode in v.Inch HOSTETTER'S BIT? TE K'S operate in such oases is this: They in? vigorate tho cellular membrane of tho sto? mach, which evolves tho gu*Lrio juice, thereby insuring an atnplu sufficiency of thc fluid to completely dissolve tho food. They also act upon tho nerves of tho stomach, causing an acceleration of tho mechanical movomont ne? cessary to reduce thc food to a homogenous mass. They also act specifically upon tho liver, strengthening it, and so enabling it to produce an ampio and regular supply of hilo, for tho purposo of converting tho nutritious particles of tho chyme into chyle, and promolo tho passage through tho bowels of tho useless ' In thia way, H0STETTE1VS BITTERS cure dyspepsia and liver complaint. Tho explana? tion is plain, simple, philosophical and true. June 17_tG Administrator's Notice.
